Flintlock Repair?

[BigM]

Hey everyone,

My Dad passed down a beautiful Flintlock I need to have serviced. I'm in Shelby County but I'll drive for good service.

I believe that there is some sort of object stuck in the barrel and I'm not sure it's a bullet.

Any ideas or recommendations would be appreciated!

First, assume it is loaded until you can prove with 100% certainty otherwise. How far down the barrel is it?

Jack Garner has a shop in the Corinth area..
Tennessee Valley Manufacturing

Give him a call and see if he can help you out.

It's a couple hours drive, but he knows muzzleloaders..

Flint and Smo offer good advice. Jack in Corinth is a good guy and I'm certain he could help you.
I got to thinking and I'm pretty sure there's a contingency of muzzle Loading guys at the Memphis Sport Shooting Association. You can contact the association by email on their website. Maybe they can put you on someone close by.
